Today at the gym, and I've seen it many times before by a few people.......

A woman got on the elliptical next to me. Prodding along at a slow, relaxed pace, Talking on a cell phone!

For at least 20 minutes!

Then, I notice she has a Starbucks coffee with her!

Not to mention, she looked good. Meaning she must have spent a long time doing her hair and all, just to come to the gym.

Why even bother? Heaven forbid she should break a sweat!

Nope. Im a sweater and a gasper. Although sometimes i sing. Im sure it comes out in breathless sputters but i cant hear it, lol.

If Im going to make the time to exercise, Im not going to waste it staying in my "fat burning zone". There are much more pleasant things to do at that pace, such as an early evening walk with my hubby or swimming in the surf with my kids.

Kind of like when the 20 somethings put on a bikini to do laps at the gym's pool. Seriously?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
